Artwork description

Allegory immerses the viewer in a dramatic interplay of darkness and fire. The composition is dominated by deep blacks that carve out a void, interrupted by swirls of red, orange, and gold. These fiery strokes twist and curl, resembling both flames and ribbons of energy, evoking a sense of destruction and rebirth.

Amid the chaotic movement, hints of human form appear—fragmented, ghostly, and elusive. A pale face and delicate features emerge from the shadows, partially consumed by the swirling blaze. This figure seems suspended between light and darkness, embodying both vulnerability and resilience in the midst of turmoil.

The painting suggests a symbolic narrative, where chaos and order coexist in fragile balance. Fire becomes not just a force of devastation, but also one of transformation. The viewer is invited to reflect on struggle, survival, and the eternal cycle of destruction giving way to renewal. It is both haunting and hopeful, an abstract meditation on the human condition.
